ASUN opinion
Editor's note: Janie Erdenberger is an ASUN
senator from Arts and Sciences.
A siudefii feu6r5!"iip experience Ts not just i or
those' members of the academic minority who
already are leaders. Nor is it just for those1
students aspiring to such heights.
instead, a student leadership conference, such
as the one sponsored by ASUN and the UNL
Student Alumni Board this Thursday through
Sunday, serves a much more persona!, worthwhile,
purpose. , .
The conference, to be held in the Nebraska
Union, with representatives from an 11 -state
region, is composed of two parts. The first of
these, conducted by Student Leadership Services
of Minneapolis, covers a variety of leadership
skills.
These range from exercises dealing with group
participation, cohesion and decisionmaking to
learning and practicing skills of discussion,
leading and directing. These abilities are useful
not only in government leadership roles, but also
apply to any part of a student's academic career.
I he second hast 01 trie conference is sponsored
by ASUN and will use a wide variety of Campus .
and out-of-state resources. It will involve a series
of workshops and presentations dealing more
specifically with individual student concerns.
Topics such as the political inference of student
government, student groups and student fees,
concerns of women and minorities as related to
student government and goal decision making will
be offered.
An experience such as the leadership confer
ence offers could be of value to any student. It will
pertain not only to the student interested in the
rolls of various university institutions, but also to
the student interested in his personal contribution
to the academic community.
It is through opportunities such as this that the
calibre of student groups and student leaders may
be raised. Even more necessary, skills of
individuals can be improved as well. Couldn't you
benefit from such an experience? Wouldn't the
university gain from your improvement?

Alumni fees defende
UNL siudenis Don waiters, Betsy Anderson,' John
Erfckson,' Sara Leroy, Dave MIcBrlde, Leanette Merreft
and Judith-Anne Sadler are members of the Studem.
Alumni Board.
, In last Thursday's Daily Nebraskan(Oct. 10), Mary
Jenkins' letter criticized tne"al!ocation of student fees
money to the UNL Student Alumni Board- She stated
.that l, for one; resent the.-fact- that 'student fees are
supporting; an' alumni . .organization,' not to mention
some of the programs it funds.
yVe are glad to see her. concern for the way the mor
1v
is spent, but as an ASUN senator, she should real
thi is the same group that granted ASUN $2,500 for nt
Student Leadership Conference, helpjng to cut the cos:
of the conference for UNL students.
In all of the literature and In two out of three letter;:
ASUN sent to students, the Student Afu'mni Board wa?
never mentioned. This points out that, on the one hand. '
ASUN is concerned about the money the board got, but
ori the other hand, it is the first to come to the beard 'or
money. . : ' . ... . .

. . ;The goals which board members have agreed to seek'
are: .'.:
, ..To provide and encourage student .programming,
and activities which strengthen UNL as an educations,
and cultural institution.
To promote awareness and, cooperation a mono
. students, faculty, staff and alumni.
Student alumni associations have enhanced otf.ei
universities in the United States, and we hope to follow
their example. In the Oct. 4 Daily Nebraskan, lovva
State's increased enrollment was mentioned. At a
recent convention there, the administrators pointed out
that their student alumni group was mostly responsibly
for the increase.
We hope to build an organization that is just as
strong and effective. Therefore", we hope ASUN, as veil
as other students, will seek more information before
criticizing us.
